More Geraniums in bloom! Look at Geranium renardii 'White Knights'. What a great plant.

That is so pretty. I looked at geraniums at the nursery today but held off buying them. It's supposed to be in the 20s tomorrow night with snow. :cry:

That's a pretty one :) I grow Geranium 'Philippe Vapelle' which has that same foliage but darker flowers. I love the foliage of these but with Philippe Vapelle the flowers unfortunately don't last all that long. Is that the same way with White Knight?

Still, foliage can be nice. This is a shot of Acorus planted with Geranium 'Philippe Vapelle'. Nothing but foliage :)

Chris that is a beautiful picture. I like the long variegated leaves contrasted with the darker green leaves.
